That's what I said. This hurricane was pretty weaksauce after surviving Ivan. Hell, I stayed downtown for sally. Most of the hurricane, I was down by the water enjoying the show. Anyone who thought it was bad, obviously wasn't from pensacola.
It’s so funny to me that this was in my recommended. I was born and raised in Pensacola but moved to TN in 2015 for school. I’m randomly back in Pensacola to help my grandparents after hurricane sally hit their house pretty bad and this pops up on my homepage. So cool! Interesting video too! Sad to see how everyone was hit so hard with little warning 😥 but Pensacola has such a great community, everyone will get through it together!
you don't realize how big the barges are until some drunk parks one in your yard... (u know, went drinking last nite, too much to drink, took a bus home. Kinda fun, I'd never driven a bus before!) 🙀🤣👍
As usual, another great video. The barges, that is just crazy. So many questions about the barges actually. Hard believe happened. Have little to zero knowledge in ref to how could have been prevented from hitting bridges, however, seems something could have took place. IDK. I’m thankful you guys were safe. Love your attitude. Your correct there r times we r reminded and have to accept we really are not in control. Hey the wonderful part and greatest blessing is there still was a wedding!! You and Sam are married! 😎. Even in aftermath of hurricane Sally there was sunshine in your lives. A Great Blessing.
I think we need to sue the company who owned the barges because they spilled oil in the bay they messed a lot of stuff for fishermen and people in Pensacola in general
A few weeks ago driving over 3 mile my wife was like ( what happens to all these barges if theirs a storm? ) I was like ( theve got to be anchored down really well) ... guess not so much lol
This randomly popped up on my feed. Got a friend lives down there. Was kind of neat to see all the things they were talking about. Thanks for that. Hope the wedding went well, circumstances aside.
I had to move away from Pcola last year and I miss it so much! It breaks my heart to see the videos and photos of the aftermath of Sally. I enjoyed your humor out of the situation and loved seeing familiar places again in your video though.
It could have been worse, much, much worse. I lived in Pensacola 2017-2019, off Alcaniz, a lovely town, beaches second to none. My peeps are still there and grateful damage, loss of life, etc., wasn’t worse. Sorry you guys were displaced.
looks like my town when Super Storm Sandy hit. didn't ruin any bridges that I know of but the house damage was severe- I'd say 85% of my town is lifted now. glad you guys made it
Just found your page. Hurricane Delta may hit us at the end of the week now. I'm over this year! I'm near cantonment and praying these trees don't hit my house by the end of the week.
Great to see your documentary of Sally. It's been 4 years now that I first saw one of your videos before we came to visit the beautiful land of Pensacola to see the Gulf and do some fishing. You provided some great fishing advise. I hope that Joe Patties gets back up n going. Last I saw they were surrounded by water. Well this year we decided to come in Sept, but were in Panama City when Sally made landfall. What a ride those hurricanes are. My fiance and I hated to see the damage it caused to the your surrounding area. Keep up the good work. BTW Great advise. Life never does go as planned, but with change comes adaptation.
I live in Pensacola and litterally just moved into an apartment a week before Sally and we had zero damage and didn't lose power not even a flicker! I work in Lillian and they got decimated!
Sometimes in Challenges we find our greatest strengths and our worst weaknesses, and to grow further we need our feathers ruffled up a bit. Congrats, Stay Safe !!!!!
I live in Pensacola, I have someone in the family that USED to work for Suckska and he spoke with someone who still works there and he said they Did not prepare the night at all for this storm even though they were on the news saying they did prepare for 30 mile winds.
Just glad you guys are ok. That was a bad one but like you said you have no control ya just have to role with is. The barges was crazy. Good luck on the wedding. Need video. LOL
Please someone that lives in Pensacola, share the progress with the clean up of pensacola. My wife and I visit every year. Were supposed to be there the third week in October. Were staying at the big lagoon state park.
Sally was Ivan’s little sister! She sure snuck in on us. No real damage for us, just 6 days without power, 3 days no water. Very thankful it wasn’t worse.
Dude, you do a fantastic video. I don't remember seeing as good of a news report on Sally. I'm glad you got that marriage thing taken care of in spite of what could have looked like a divine intervention to stop it! I wish you the best my veteran brother...
Another insane logistic with this storm was the amount of rain we got! 35+ inches of rainfall in some places around here! It deluged for more than a day straight. I live 2 or so miles from the bay, and houses on the other side of the street we’re getting a foot of water in their houses! I am insanely lucky and I now have a new respect for the power of a hurricane. 🌧
We plan to move to pensacola area but more north. How long did it take for the power to come back? We are looking towards moving right at the FL/AL border. But want to make sure we will be somewhat safe if a Hurricane hits. I am from Jersey and it took 2+ weeks for power to come back during Sandy.
Glad to hear everyone is OK. From personal experience I'd say that the more difficult things are up to the wedding, the longer the marriage will last. On another note, two months ago my wife and I decided to move from New Orleans to Pensacola. Still planning on the move as soon as we get the house here in NOLA sold.
Dang Yak! You are right, you pick up and carry on, in a different direction if need be! Can't wait for the wedding video, you can't plan this sh!7. It's an adventure. Good work!
Rode it out in Orange Beach. Wildest storm I've ever been in. Ivan was bad, but there was warning. Most people were gone. This one snuck up on us. Most people I've talked to, that have the option, have said never again will they stick around. I was posted up on the Perdido Pass bridge (police officer) right up until the eyewall was coming ashore. There was a radar truck next to me that stayed through the whole storm that clocked 132mph wind gusts once the eyewall hit.
It is weird how things tend to control our destinies at times in our lives. I few years back I was considering moving to Pensacola, but decided against it. Crazy Ol world we live in.
So funny thing about this video is that it shows a section of property off Bayshore drive. The significance of that is years ago when Ivan hit Pensacola, i cleared property on Bayshore Drive. The VERY PROPERTY where that barge is sitting!!! I need more aerial of that scene PLEASE.
Crazy to see the barges and destruction. We are planning a trip there soon. What is the mask situation like there? Can you move about freely without one? Food establishments etc?
My son and his fiancee were supposed to be married on the 19th but the venue and other vendors had no power so now they're getting married in December.
incompetent contractor. Not many people are any good at their jobs anymore. Captains with the company should have repositioned the barges to a safe cove for the storm.
Yak, be on the lookout for a possible cat 2 hurricane heading that way between pensacola and and west of panama city around the 8th of oct. not joking, not making any prediction, just advising on the possibility. You will see what I’m talking about around the 5th or 6th.
Hurricane Sally: I destroyed Pensacola!
Hurricane Ivan: That's so cute, amateur.
Exactly
That's what I said. This hurricane was pretty weaksauce after surviving Ivan. Hell, I stayed downtown for sally. Most of the hurricane, I was down by the water enjoying the show. Anyone who thought it was bad, obviously wasn't from pensacola.
Yeah I've lived in Pensacola my whole life, we weren't quite prepared for Sally to be this bad.
It was how long it lasted that was the annoyance. XD
Some people see a barge in their backyard - I see the base for my new pontoon party boat.
Thanks for posting! Love you guys. Always positive, even while faced with so much adversity.
Thanks Mike!
Dogs are so resourceful! They take everything in stride & deal with it. Bella is beautiful!

Thanks for watching everyone! What do you think about all these barges?
you don't realize how big the barges are until some drunk parks one in your yard... (u know, went drinking last nite, too much to drink, took a bus home. Kinda fun, I'd never driven a bus before!) 🙀🤣👍
That’s nuckin futs!

You have a great attitude about the whole ordeal. Most people would have lost their minds over the timing of Hurricane Sally.
I had to move away from Pcola last year and I miss it so much! It breaks my heart to see the videos and photos of the aftermath of Sally. I enjoyed your humor out of the situation and loved seeing familiar places again in your video though.
It could have been worse, much, much worse. I lived in Pensacola 2017-2019, off Alcaniz, a lovely town, beaches second to none. My peeps are still there and grateful damage, loss of life, etc., wasn’t worse. Sorry you guys were displaced.
Your attitude is inspirational! Thanks
Glad you think so!
I appreciate you documenting all this, this hit us pretty hard... I got flooded into my house for 4 days..
Wow! That is the great thing about a VLOG. You are capturing life as it happens.
looks like my town when Super Storm Sandy hit. didn't ruin any bridges that I know of but the house damage was severe- I'd say 85% of my town is lifted now. glad you guys made it
Thanks Robert!
A great example of American optimism! Way to go!
Just found your page. Hurricane Delta may hit us at the end of the week now. I'm over this year! I'm near cantonment and praying these trees don't hit my house by the end of the week.
Congratulations on yalls wedding buddy! Keeping yall and the rest of florida in our prayers.
Thanks so much
@@YakMotley Your welcome cowboy.

Long time J! Look at you broski! Keep up good work broski. Congratulations to you and your new family!!
I live in Pensacola and litterally just moved into an apartment a week before Sally and we had zero damage and didn't lose power not even a flicker! I work in Lillian and they got decimated!
Sometimes in Challenges we find our greatest strengths and our worst weaknesses, and to grow further we need our feathers ruffled up a bit. Congrats, Stay Safe !!!!!
Well said! Thanks!
Glad your ok thanks for sharing Jack!
Thanks 👍
I am in Pensacola also. My poor neighborhood is destroyed. No one was prepared for Sally.
I live in Pensacola, I have someone in the family that USED to work for Suckska and he spoke with someone who still works there and he said they Did not prepare the night at all for this storm even though they were on the news saying they did prepare for 30 mile winds.
Just glad you guys are ok. That was a bad one but like you said you have no control ya just have to role with is. The barges was crazy. Good luck on the wedding. Need video. LOL
thats one lucky house, can you imagine all the lawsuits that barge company is gonna have
I'm wondering who had the contract that authorized the barges.. (u know how pass the buck is played) But I see all of you are grinning... 🥳🥰👍😊😎🇺🇲
@Barack in Chicago HAH! You're not in Chicago anymore Toto. Welcome to Fla. 🙀😖👍😎
Well it could of been worse it could of taken out the house instead of parking itself in their yard! 😏😏😏😏😏😏
So glad it all worked out! Can’t wait for the wedding episode. You guys just role with the punches. You’ll come out strong.
Staying POSITIVE,ATTITUDES. GREAT FAMILY AND FRIENDS.YOU CAN OVER COME PRETTY MUCH ALL THAT LIFE THROWS AT YOU.CONGRATS TO YOU BOTH.
I live off Dog Track Rd and the office I work out of is in Gulf Breeze. I'm glad we have work from home at the moment.
Olive Road got thrashed near Cody Ln. Hope y'all are doing well.
Thank you and good luck. Really great attitude.
Thanks!
The company who owns those barges and the company who was building the bridge is going to PAY!!
The bridge company won the law suite.
This is absolutely EPIC!!! I'm proud to know you!
Thanks!
Yep we got absolutely destroyed. Our roof is messed up and big ass hole and ceiling was leaking and I almost died twice and we were hit by a tornado.
Our Creator always in charge ... your a believable. Great Video
Great video. I love my hometown but this is why I passed on moving back. Hurricane central city. Still praying for my hometown🙏🏽
I live in Myrtle Grove Here in Pensacola and it took 3 days to get the trees cleared just so you could get down Lillian Hwy.
Please someone that lives in Pensacola, share the progress with the clean up of pensacola. My wife and I visit every year. Were supposed to be there the third week in October. Were staying at the big lagoon state park.
Amazing video Yak, great info too. thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is EXACTLY why I haven't made doc appts yet. All my doctors are in pcola.Navarre got pretty flooded.
I heard Sheriff Morgan say, "we have even talked to the Navy about dropping ordnance on the barge." I couldn't believe it. Great video! Thanks!
Thanks for watching Micheal!
Sally was Ivan’s little sister! She sure snuck in on us. No real damage for us, just 6 days without power, 3 days no water. Very thankful it wasn’t worse.

Thanks Ed!
i live in pace florida that hurricane was something else.
What ever bruv
true survivors to get through a hurricane and the logistics of a wedding and the rest; got to think all will be well in pennsacola fl
Good video. We lucked out while two trees fell fortunately they just missed out house and shop.
That's crazy, hope you're ok, and have a great day😀!

Congrats on the wedding!!
What software do you use to edit your videos?
Thanks Casey. Final Cut Pro x
Glad you wer safe looks terrible down there with all the damage be safe my friend God bless you and Samantha
Glad to hear everyone is OK. From personal experience I'd say that the more difficult things are up to the wedding, the longer the marriage will last.

We will have to deal with the aftermath now. Months of shitty traffic from Navarre to Pensacola.
Was there ever not shitty traffic from Navarre to Pensacola?
Charlie Vanlandingham yeah, you’re right about that!
Yak you are a Great Man, God Bless !
Dang Yak! You are right, you pick up and carry on, in a different direction if need be! Can't wait for the wedding video, you can't plan this sh!7. It's an adventure. Good work!
Great video! Love those aerials man!! Lol
Thanks! 👍

WOW!
Glad you're making light of a shitty situation. Awesome video
That is insane. Glad y'all are ok.
***Everyone would have to go around to Quintette Rd***
...If the I10 bridge got damaged.
great video brother!
-D
Thanks for watching!
We had just walked 3 mile on Sunday 😅 looks like we're not doing that anytime soon.
I live in Pensacola and it was really crazy
Beautiful pup! Be safe man!
It is weird how things tend to control our destinies at times in our lives.
I few years back I was considering moving to Pensacola, but decided against it.
Crazy Ol world we live in.
I live in Navarre we were hit pretty hard but not that hard... The barges getting lose is nuts.
I love how positive you are. I live in Pace .Great video
Thank you! 😊
Yep. Life is an adventure. You have a great attitude.
And then Pensacola freaked out hearing about Delta. XD Wooooo we lucked out on that one.
Dude! Hate that for you and Brant. Hope the relocate goes well.
Thank you!
So funny thing about this video is that it shows a section of property off Bayshore drive. The significance of that is years ago when Ivan hit Pensacola, i cleared property on Bayshore Drive. The VERY PROPERTY where that barge is sitting!!! I need more aerial of that scene PLEASE.
Yes he said "rurnt". Look it up !
Glenn Caswell it’s a southern thing.
That dadgum thing out yonder is rurnt.
Great attitude. It will make you stronger..
thank god your family is safe good luck
I think the pop-up would make a nice temporary office
Your right!
Very cool vlog 👍 was not that bad down here on Muldoon , stay safe !
Thanks 👍
@@YakMotley you're welcome.
Crazy to see the barges and destruction. We are planning a trip there soon. What is the mask situation like there? Can you move about freely without one? Food establishments etc?
shoulda came over by perdido key! i got a nice sail boat in my front yard from the storm!
nice Cav Stetson in the background... Scouts Out!
I'm here 6 days no power!!!!! Sickkkkk
Why didn’t they sink the barges? We always put the barge on the bottom. It’s nothing to raise one that is fresh and not in the mud.
My son and his fiancee were supposed to be married on the 19th but the venue and other vendors had no power so now they're getting married in December.
We were all caught off guard for sure! #PensacolaStrong
We were on vacation there and why we were not told to evacuate🤷🏻♀️😡
It didn't seem that bad off 9 mile near UWF. Driving that night though it was almost completely dark. Very eerie ...
Embrace the suck, Lol. The one I liked to use is "it's better this way". Where'd you get that Merica hat? I want one.
All I'm hearing is that Hurricane Sally is Samantha's fault.
Catastrophic for sure-do u get to claim a boat if it ende up in your yard?
Humans plan, God laughs.
“The Legendary Motley Nuptial Experience” should be the title of your next vlog!
Have you heard anything about how long it will take for the three mile bridge to be repaired?
Over a year

Glad you guys are ok.
Love your positivity!!!
Thanks Ron!
Great video! Good editing.
Congrats on getting your wedding done there. Just seems like yesterday i was wondering when you two were going to get married 👍🇺🇸
Brother am sorry.......... now clue all of this happened?? Down here in MIA very little coverage of this??
Yak, be on the lookout for a possible cat 2 hurricane heading that way between pensacola and and west of panama city around the 8th of oct. not joking, not making any prediction, just advising on the possibility. You will see what I’m talking about around the 5th or 6th.
I'm just always trying to figure out who these brain dead people who downvote your videos are. Awesome job as always! 👌
Me too! Thanks!
